People Wow!!

Well, It's been a while. I thought I would just check in, and say Hello. My Brother Paul, is doing a little better. He is not walking yet, he can a little with his walker. but not much. We just helped him move into a single story apt., he was in a two story, and the shower was upstairs, made it hard for his wife and mother in law, to get him upstairs to take a shower. The new apt., has two bathrooms both with full showers. It's much better, for him. It is bigger, and he can move about in his wheel chair much easier. He is still doing physical therapy. It is two days a week, so all the hope is in it just taking time for him to get the rest of his speech back, and be able to get rid of that wheel chair!! Keep him in your prayers!!

My cousin Mike, just had knee replacement surgery on the 10th. He is at home, making good progress, I called today, and he seemed like he was in allot of pain. He goes to the doctor tomorrow, so hopefully they give him something a little stronger for the pain. I guess there is some kind of machine he has to use on his knee and it makes it hurt. Hoping for a speed recovery for him also!! Keep him in your prayers too!!

One of my oldest and dearest friends Darla, is finally home, recovering from two surgeries herself!! She went into the hospital, with side pain, they found cyst on her right ovary they had to remove, and they removed her appendix, while they were in there. She had some complications, to make a long story short, she ended up with blood left in her abdominal area, and had to have another surgery to have it removed! She was in and out of the hospital 3 times before they finally got everything taken care of. What a ordeal!! She is finally recovering. Thank God!! Please keep her in your prayers as well!!

One more prayer request, another friend of mine mother is in the hospital with 3 brain tumors, that are not operable, and she is on the strongest of chemo., of course they want to put a time limit on her life, but, that is just unacceptable!! It is my friend Dawn's mom. She is a very close friend of Darla's so is Dawn's mom Ethel, that's is who I am speaking of. It has been very hard on Dawn and her whole family!!! Let's please pray for Ethel, that these brain tumors be healed, and for strength for Dawn, and her family and friends!! What a sad and emotional ride. Dawn herself just got through Hotchkens
LYmpoma Her mother and her are very strong. I pray they continue, especially Ethel, to fight the good fight, may God be with them and keep them!! Amen!

Well, now to little ld Well, I am as good as can be expected!! Actually better, due to all that has gone on in my life the past few months. I have no complaints, with where I am and how I am doing!! My kids and husband are healthy, we have a roof over our heads and food to eat and allot of love!!!!!!!!! SO, I am doing GREAT! So many people going through so much, it just make me realize how important life is. We need to keep in touch with all our friends and family, let them know how much we love them, and really have compassion for others. You just never know what they might be going through!!

I started writing this originally to vent about my father, but after everything that's been said here, I well save that for tomorrow!!
